If sustain and plenty of it is a mainstay of your style, then the Ibanez SRT700DX Electric Bass may be the gear for you. Thru-neck construction optimizes string vibration. But, Ibanez didnât stop there. The Active EMGÂ® 40DX pickups are highly responsive, capable of expressing the broadest possible tonal spectrum. And the SRTâs 3-D contoured body, with arched top and scooped back body always gets high marks for player comfort. The SRT700DX features Mahogany body, 5pc Maple/Bubinga thru-neck and Accu-cast B300 bridge, which gives you easier string installation and height adjustment than any traditionally designed bridge.

as usual... Ibanez really came through on this one. The neck thru body is so comfortable and the sustain is allllll daaayyyy!! Not to mention these are some of the better EMG pickups Ive played. It is so nice to be able to create any tone you need without even considering walking over to your amp. the pre-amp is amazing!!! punch through the mix easily, clear as a bell. The quality of the wood and finish cannot be enjoyed through the pics. It has a very light finish so that the wood really stands out on this thing!!! more like a protective barrier not a deep varnish finish. A true work of art!! You will enjoy just staring at it on the guitar stand almost as much as grooving on it. Very well balanced, great fret work, fast, comfortable neck. Cant say enough about this one...and the price?? this thing is a steal!!
